Just lovely, and reminds me of why your blog has always been my favourite. I found these quotes from Jane Austen and your interpretations thereof highly encouraging reading. I also laughed when I saw a photo of Pemberley, with the instruction below to "Live Within Your Means." Haha!

I enjoyed it so much and felt much peace whilst reading these words. We live in a world that is so much rush and bustle. I think it is so easy to get waylayed by everything outside of our homes that we are told we should be doing. I would love to see more of this type of writing and thank you so much for the effort you put into this lovely site I visit each week.

It is easy to stray from this purity and foundation based on God's Word as He directs wives and mothers. This world is full of distractions from those foundational truths. Thank you so much for your constant reminders that the main things are the plain things! And love the Jane Austen reminders!

It is quickly becoming a lost art and your articles are inspirational. We live in a time where it's almost shameful to admit that one is a homemaker. It's become degrading when a young girl talks about her love of baking and to her friends and is met with ridicule. What kind of crazy world do we live in!

I have always cleaned the kitchen at night, tidied up as I cook and made sure all the beds are made in the morning. And, on busy or bad days, if this is all that gets done, it still makes a huge difference.
